I can make OTG depend on GADGET and HCD, no issue with that.
But we can't get rid of the OTG to HCD/Gadged interfaces as we want things
to work with GADGET and HCD as modules.

Enabled, but not necessarily built-in. Most distributions don't have them
as built-in.

But let's not argue in that direction. Let's say that they can be either
built-in or modules.

Sure. Every system designer is free to select the configuration.

I don't thing that's possible. Kconfig will complain.
